Girls Swim & Dive

Team News

The first official day of 2017 fall sports for girls swim and dive is Monday, August 21. Fall sports registration is now live. Our swim program offers varsity and junior varsity competition, and may make cuts based on pool space, access and the safety of those participating.

Practice takes place regularly at the City of Tukwila Pool, found on the campus of Foster High School. During the school year, swim and dive participants can board the Tukwila/Renton bus route immediately after school for transportation to the City of Tukwila Pool.

August practice schedule:

8/21-25: 4:00-6:00pm

8/28-9/1: 4:00-6:00pm

9/4: 4:00-6:00pm

Beginning 9/5 through the rest of the season practices will run from 3:00-4:30pm, Monday through Friday on all non-meet days.

Games schedules will be posted online through NPSLathletics.org. Practice schedules will be released to the team when available.
